§ MR. ARTHUR MORTON (Deptford)To ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he is now able to give an answer to the memorial from the civil servants asking for an inquiry into the terms and conditions of the existing system of superannuation in the Civil Service; and, if not, whether he can see his way to granting a day for the discussion of the question before the conclusion of the present Sitting.
277 (Answered by Mr. A. J Balfour.) The Government propose to appoint a small Commission to inquire into the working of the system of superannuation embodied in the Superannuation Acts, and to report whether, without increasing the charge on public funds for non-effective services, any change in the system is desirable, either in the interests of civil servants or the State.
